    What one sin abhorant to God is one that most all of us are guilty of ?

    What one attribute is most loathed by Christians and non Christians alike ? It is the one vice that no man in the world is free of and yet when they see it in others they are loathed? I speak of Pride or Self Conceit - (and the virtue opposite is Humility.) It is one of the most insipient of ...read more

    This sermon seeks to provide a better understanding as to how God guides His people. It takes an illustration of a hand, with its five fingers, to give a practical insight into the subject.

    INTRODUCTION Today’s talk is entitled How does God guide us? As we consider this subject, I would like to make some assumptions – 1) We assume that God exists. 2) That God wants to guide us. 3) That we want him to guide us. I will assume we all hold a positive response to all of these ...read more

    While we may have to follow our heart in devising the path that we are to walk in, we can rest assured that Jesus is still directing our steps.

    TAKE THE NEXT STEP By Pastor Jim May Sometimes life can be so confusing.

    Nebuchadnezzar: Pride's Proud Prisoner

    Contributed by Donnie Martin on Sep 21, 2003
    based on 70 ratings
     | 13,295 views

    Pride tends to make one see themselves as the center of one’s own universe; as the one who is in control, when in fact, pride holds us prisoner. God’s dealings with Nebuchadnezzar on the issue of pride totally changed his thinking.

    Nebuchadnezzar: Pride’s Proud Prisoner Text: Dan.4: 8-18; Prov.16: 18 Intro: One need not go far in God’s Word to find the sin of pride rearing its ugly head. Genesis 3: 4-5 recounts for us the fall of Adam and Eve. Their fall was the direct result of pride having taken root in their ...read more
